An unusually large gnome approaches you. Eh? You looking for Solomon you say? He appears very old and hard of hearing.

Leaning against the doorframe, Thyrias answers the gnome from behind Kariron. "Yes, old one. You're Solomon? King sent us.
Jun 26, 2017 6:26 pm
Me? No, no. I'm not Solomon, I am Orthos. Solomon is in the store room. I can retrieve him if you'd like.

He leads to a large room, filled with trees and animals. He whistles and this large red parrot flies and lands on his shoulder. Meet Solomon.

Thyrias produces a small cracker from his pocket, lobbing it experimentally near the bird. If this really is a bird, it should snatch it...
Jul 4, 2017 2:15 pm
As Thyrias throws the cracker, the bird flies towards the cracker and in an instant transforms into something else. This something else is about 7' tall and slender. His hair is slicked back to a point, his arms covered in small, bright green feathers.

Kairon looks phased for a moment, but quickly regains his composure. "Well, now, that's... quite something. Tell us, wise one, what is it we need to know?" He keeps his eyes on the beast, running his hand through his hair.

Thyrias makes a small chuckle from beside the door, and makes a casual nod as if to say he knew that's what was going to happen.

Solomon pulls a small package out from a pouch he has at his waist. Do not open this. If you do, you are all dead. And no, that is not a threat. What is in here will kill you and then it will be uncontrollable. He reaches back into the pouch and pulls out a map. Who is your navigator?

"That would be me" Elran steps forward past the others. "I'll also be keeping hold of the package."
Jul 8, 2017 10:55 pm
"Now hold on a second there, bud." Kairon sidles up besides Elran. "I'm not saying you shouldn't be navigating, no one else wants to do that. But I do have a bit of issue with you holding the all important package. I'm not tryin' to say anything against you, but it seems only fair that it should be shared between the three of us. Does it not?"
Jul 9, 2017 2:21 pm
Elran glances back towards the doubter. "Well if this is as all powerful as we've been told, I don't really want it in the hands of anyone other than myself. Given I'm not perfect but I know about your curiosity Kairon."

Wallamin steps forward with some straw in his hand.
we can draw for. Then we won't have to fight over how carries it.

Thyrias produces a deck from thin air again. "Great suggestion, Walla. I've got a deck right here. A card each, top card get's the box?" He makes a point of shuffling the desk from hand to hand.
